How long it takes to do a money transfer from Canada to Finland?

Question

My father living in Montreal, transfered me some money to my bank account in Finland last thursday. How long it'll take to come here, in my bank account?

Answer 1

48 hours seems to be the standard "estimated delivery time" for wire transfers, yet they almost always takes much, much longer. Expect it to arrive within a week from when it was sent, if you're lucky. Next time you should have him send a cheque via overnight snail mail, it would cost much less money and arrive more quickly.
